Serbia’s relations with Russia took a dramatic downturn several days ago when the Russian Foreign Ministry issued a sharply worded rebuke to the Serbian regime for selling arms, ammunition, and other military equipment to Ukraine in the midst of the ongoing conflict with Russia. The rebuke comes following the Serbian President’s sojourn in Moscow for the 9 May Victory Day festivities when, it is suspected, he was read the riot act concerning that very matter. It also marks a notable reversal of Russia’s previous positions that had been interpreted as supportive of the Serbian regime in the face of the…

Last week at an event at the European Parliament, an MEP asked me a question that I hear often: “Does JD Vance hate Europe?” My guess is that he does not hate the Europe of tête de veau in a Rive Gauche brasserie in Paris, of Sunday mass at the Duomo in Milan, of Alpine lakes in Switzerland, or of paintings at the Alte Pinothek in Munich. What he hates is Brussels, or rather, “Brussels”—the symbol of official, bureaucratic Europe, and the dictatorship of managerial liberalism administered from there. He hates the Europe of decrees from the European Commission, of the Digital…
Whatever ends up happening, and hopefully nothing too dramatic will unfold, it’s long overdue for Russia to finally call Vucic out. Russia’s Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) accused Serbia of shooting Russia in the back by arming Ukraine. Such reports first circulated in connection with spring 2023’s Pentagon leaks, but they were denied by President Aleksandar Vucic, who just defied EU pressure by visiting Moscow during Victory Day. He reacted to the latest news by declaring that he’ll block the supply of Serbian arms and ammo to countries that are suspected of sending them to Ukraine, but that contradicts what he said in June 2023. Back then, he said that “Is it…
Only babes in the woods were surprised by the viral video of Western “statesmen” caught by journalists in the act of furtively concealing narcotics that they were sniffing in the train compartment whilst returning from Kiev, where they were hosted by fellow addict Zelensky. In more “based” times, which are today a memory of the distant past, the spectacle of high ranking political leaders casually taking drugs would have produced a scandal, leading inevitably to their dismissal from public office. That is because scandal is inherently a value based category. The possibility of provoking a scandal is bound up with…
Is Moldova going berserk? A “destabilisation” paranoia has gripped the authorities of this artificial country which is an incongruous combination of Russian and Romanian ethnic components, conjoined in a political union dictated not by choice but by geopolitical circumstances. The Moldovan government has been made to believe that it is the target of a destabilisation campaign orchestrated from Russia. To make the accusation more bizarre, it is alleged that for that purpose Russia is using citizens of Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, and Belarus. The Zelensky regime in Kiev claims that its intelligence has uncovered the details of the “Russian…
Kaja Kallas’ delusional and laughably ill-timed announcement, made the day after Russia’s 9 May Victory Day triumph in Moscow, that European puppet leaders are planning to establish a “special tribunal” within the framework of the Council of Europe to judge Russia for “aggression” and other alleged crimes in Ukraine jogs some memories from the Hague. ICTY, the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia, is located there, as the new Tribunal Kallas has mentioned will also be. This writer had spent some of the most interesting years of his life there. An enduring memory is former Serbian and Yugoslav President…
To be more precise, it would be in a world operating on normal principles of decency. But from the perspective of the fact-challenged denizens of the collective West, we all suspect that it is not. As the 80th anniversary of the defeat of European Axis powers approaches, a notorious non-issue is gaining prominence. It is which country deserves the most credit and had sacrificed the most to achieve victory over the Axis that is soon to be commemorated. The mere raising of this preposterous question creates an artificial and for the poorly schooled citizens of Western countries thoroughly misleading historical “dilemma,”…
Using NATO and the EU as its primary tools, the collective West is currently waging an intense campaign to reconfigure the political space in Bosnia and Hercegovina. The first step in that process is to remove (or “decapitate” in their terminology) the leadership of the recalcitrant Republika Srpska, the Serb ethnic entity with Bosnia, which refuses to give up its constitutional autonomous attributes or to “come to heel,” in a phrase made famous in the 1990s during the war in Bosnia. That war, it may be recalled, was terminated by the signing in Paris of the Dayton Peace Agreement in December 1995. The…
The departure of the Roman Pontifex Maximus will lead to a re-examination of his legacy and, more broadly, intense speculation about the reversibility of Roman Catholic communion’s further decline, which was accelerated under his reign. Will the College of Cardinals, eighty percent of whom consist of Bergoglio’s carefully chosen and ideologically compatible appointees, have the objectivity and moral courage to select from their ranks as his successor anyone, if such there be, who is not a doctrinal replica of the man to whom they owed their berettas? The path to the enthronement of Bergoglio is now, in retrospect, plain to…
